brandon makes new underbed mounts for the front downpipes (check the vendors section). not sure if he makes the wheelwell ones too.

suddenly getting a weird bad vibration in reverse. upon closer inspection the front shaft moves up when shifted into reverse waaaay more than it moves down when shifted into drive. I think one of my front diff mounts has died, but I'll do a more thorough look-see when I finally get around to swapping out the wheelbearings and shafts. I think I gotta get mom's car in working order first though (the bushigns I ordered have finally arrived). and that won't happen until after I get the wood stove installed. I'll get to my baby... eventually.

the car isn't getting any worse by patiently sitting a bit longer. unless mice move in. don't let that happen. -
we can guess til the cows come home on the technical advantages, but I think we all know deep in our hearts that either he just thinks it looks cool

looks good! yeah, the aftermarket replacements are pretty much crap. honestly I doubt you'd notice the difference between the 1.25 and 1.5 spacers. I'd probably go with the 1.5

there is literally no reason why you can't get this car driving. just gotta slay each gremlin, one at a time. -
white southwest pacific or caribbean?

I've had those conversations before and it's never a pleasant thing. they'll claim they found it in the "internet" and get all defensive, then quote crap from hack dimestore webpages about freedom or ask for my copyright info (that's not how it all works; creating art automatically gives you rights over that art without filing anything). besides, in this case I think it's better than the sweaters exist. they are pretty cool.

the V8 emblem was likely for the american customers.

pizza. cheese rules! A/C or heat in your daily driver (I imagine this might be very location dependant)

today I found myself 3 vehicles behind an accident where the road curved to the left and the kid... um, didn't. he drifted off the pavement, nailed a mailbox and a sign and then cartwheeled over a driveway. I pulled over and jimmied open the passenger door so the kid could get out, checked him for pain or dilated pupils, and simply calmed him down while we waited for the cops. could have been a LOT worse since there are lots of trees and deeper ditches along 81, just not that that particular spot. was likely the highlight of the week for that sweet ol' lady that shuffled out of her house to check if everyone was ok.

'tis true, but for drag racing you can wind it up before launching.

my favorite misspelling is still the junkyard fender that had "89 Commanche" right under the emblem. I grabbed the emblem but really should have snagged that whole fender just for laughs.
-
all I've found is photos but it appears that he's into drag racing. I so wonder how much power he'd make versus a single giant turbo and how long that block will last.

years ago we had an annual bill and that reminded me to remind everyone else about donating a couple bucks. but now it's a monthly bill and I tend to forget all about it until there's like 20 bucks left in the account. paypal ID: comancheclub@hotmail.com message me if you'd prefer a snail mail address.
